The hotel has a fun location near the campus and the rooms are nice and clean. However, my stay was marred by noise issues and a lack of proper food offerings on the concierge level. The handling of complaints wasn't ideal, which detracted from my experience.

The hotel has a great location near the University of Arizona, making it easy to explore local restaurants and events. The rooms are quite spacious and comfortable, but be prepared for some noise from the surrounding area, especially on weekends. The staff is extremely welcoming and goes out of their way to assist, although it seems improvements are needed as the hotel undergoes renovations. Overall, it's a decent option for the price, especially for those visiting the university.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel, particularly because the staff was exceptionally helpful, and I loved the king suite we had for extra privacy. The location was perfect for visiting the University of Arizona, making it easy to explore the campus. However, the concierge lounge felt uncomfortable during peak hours, and there were issues with the elevators due to renovations.

The hotel has a prime location near the University of Arizona, making it convenient for those attending events. The staff was warm and attentive, especially Honey, who really made me feel welcomed. However, the noise from ongoing construction and the interior layout made my stay less than perfect, especially for trying to get a good night's sleep. While the renovations promise a better future, currently, the noise and the old atrium layout detracted from my experience.

My recent stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The location is fantastic, being close to the University, making it easy to walk around. The rooms were spacious and clean, but they did show signs of wear and tear which was disappointing. While the staff were generally attentive, there were moments of inconsistency in service quality. The breakfast was decent, but it could be improved with more variety. Overall, it was a mixed experience that could shine more once renovations are completed.
